"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I'm curious if they'd be able to ID me, I haven't posted under my government name in almost 20 years and quit every public social network other than this one almost as long ago.
I'd be impressed if it can match me with my other profiles at all, but mostly because it'd mean that they're feeding a lot of spectacularly old data into their models and/or pulling from private sources they should never have had access to.
I'd be shocked if they weren't feeding in old data. Anything can be training data if you're desperate enough, including early 2000's Myspace pages scraped by the way back machine.
The wayback machine is too lossy and would have missed most of my written corpus, I'm talking about finding me in the full Twitter firehose from prior to 2008 and accounting for the fact that my writing style shifts notably with new slang.
